We are committed to equality
We are helping to create a successful economy in Northern Ireland which provides equal opportunities for all citizens.
We strive to meet our responsibilities across the spectrum of government policy relating to equality, the Lifetime Opportunities - Anti-Poverty and Social Inclusion Strategy and human rights.
